Post Competition report

Oct. 14-16

W. VOLLEYABLL– The women’s volleyball team hosted a Fall Invitational, their first tournament of the semester, this past Saturday. They started strong beating Johns Hopkins B (25-19, 25-21) and Longwood A (25-19, 25-23) before losing to ODU (23-25, 18-25). Keeping their spirits up, Mason went on to defeat Johns Hopkins A (22-25, 25-17, 15-4) in a comeback victory in the semi-finals. They faced ODU again in the finals, this time taking them to three games, but could not come out with the win, losing (25-23, 23-25, 8-15). Lindsay Simmons served five points straight points to gain a nine point lead over Johns Hopkins A in the third game of the semi-finals. Vanessa Frans got a crucial kill, despite being triple blocked, in the final match vs. ODU to gain back the serve and bring the score to 21-23. Lastly, outside hitter, Zimako Chucks, got two consecutive kills in the second set of the final match to keep Mason alive, though it wasn’t enough to take down the tough opponent.
